Eric Arthur Blair Posted May 14, 2019 Report Share Posted May 14, 2019 George Smith, the referee who cheated us in the 1981/82 League Cup semi-final at Ibrox.No tears shed here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddieinEK Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Remind me what he did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWISAINT71 Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 My recollection was ( bearing in mind I was only 10/11 so correct me if I'm wrong ) but following a 2-2 draw, we head to Castle Grey Skull. I think we 1 up and then have someone cleaned out by their keeper possibly Somner or Bone it should have been a straight red, probably got away with a stiff talking to, they equalise only to have that wee c**t John McDonald come off the bench to do what he did best i.e Dive inside the box for the inevitable penalty. Not change there then eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Arthur Blair Posted May 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 Only confirms what I said about Smith. The disallowed goal in the first half was an OG Lexy was cleaned out by Jackson.. The blue bigots were shite in the league and needed a dodgy ref to get them a cup win. He was the man to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Sanchez Posted May 15, 2019 Report Share Posted May 15, 2019 I'd like to pile on about the offside decision, but there's only one Rangers player between Lex Richardson and the goal line, so it's offside for the same reason that Dundee United's goal against us in the Scottish Cup Final was also correctly given offside.

He had to give the penalty when Stewart assaulted Macca He should have rightly sent Stewart packing Smith was just one of the many lapdogs that SFA employed to try to keep the Ranjurs at the top reaches of the game Even though they were rancid they reached 8 Scottish Cup finals in a row. Very favourable cup draws and refereeing decisions enabled this to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
